Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We had such a good time with Paola. Great food and even better conversation. She gave us tips for the rest of our time in Rome so our delicious food “tour” continued for the rest of the week. Highly recommend the tour and Paola. She was great 🙂"
"We had an amazing time together with Francesca. The food, the discussions & Francesca was well over our expectations. "
"Initially, I booked this tour with someone else and I was a little concerned when our host was swapped at the last minute but we could not have asked for a better experience than the one we had with Manu. She was very sweet and it was clear she cares a lot about Rome and the culinary traditions of the city. Thank you, Manu! "
"We booked a spur of the moment food tour with Carlo. We did not know what to expect of the tour and happily the tour exceeded our expectations. Carlo was a knowledgeable and interesting guide. We learnt about food from the different regions of Italy, as well as some of the history of Italy and food. We had a lovely evening! Thank you Carlo! "
"Leonardo was great, we had 3 hours of food, wine and chat. It's a great way to get your bearings in a new city whilst experiencing a few places you may not have found alone."
"We had a food tour with Nico in the Testaccio area and it was nothing short of perfection. Nico is a kind and wonderful human with a passion for delicious food, perfect sense of humor and conversationalist. He perfectly intertwined the history of Rome, Roman food and current culture, showed us his favorite places and once in a lifetime hidden gems We met a stranger and left friends. "
"Thomas was a great “guide” for our drinks and bites. We wanted a more local feel neighborhood for our tour, and he delivered! We met at Piazza Bologna…and it was perfect. It was bustling with shops, restaurants, bars and college students on their way back for the fall. He picked 3 very cool places and they were awesome! Vespers was the fav. Thank you…"
"Paola was well prepared and had arranged a great tasting itinerary. She was friendly and adjusted the tasting according to my preference. She also was knowledgeable on many other aspects of Rome and was enthusiastic to ensure the tour went well!"
"Paola adapted our tastings to our taste. She took us to places with the best cheeses we’ve ever tasted (and we do like cheese). We had amazing artichokes and rice rolls and granita - which we’d never heard of and was so refreshing. She shared a lot of information about the city and living in Rome. It was an excellent experience."
"We had a fabulous time with Paola. We met her in the piazza and she took us around the streets of Testaccio - sampling a variety of of food, from pizzas to pastries and then on in to Testaccio market where we sampled more food, from suppli, to fruit, to dumplings and meats plus a delicious glass of Prosecco. She then took us up to Aventine Hill to have a look, which has a magnificent view. She is an absolutely lovely, vibrant lady, who provided us with history, food and fun - would highly recommend this tour. "
